2012-2014 RAV4 EV Upper Dash panel (Dashboard) all the same?

[swogee]

I'm not sure if anyone can answer this, but I am trying to find out if the 2012 to 2014 RAV4 EV's used the same dashboard. I think I read somewhere Tony Williams owns multiple RAV4 EV's. I know the 2012 RAV4 EV used the same dashboard (upper dash panel, P/N 553020R901B0) as the 2012 RAV4 Limited. I am trying to have a pre-molded dash cover made for my 2014 RAV4 EV and the dash cover mfg is convinced the 2013/2014 RAV4 EV uses a different dashboard than the 2012 RAV4 EV.

Thanks in advance.

They are wrong. 99% of accessories and aftermarket parts need to be ordered for a 2012 RAV4. Nothing changed in the RAV4-EV from 2012-2014. However, the gas version of the RAV4 was redesigned for 2013 and forward and has completely different body and interior. That is what is confusing the manufacturer.

I say this a lot.

When dealing with aftermarket suppliers, it doesn't matter what year your Rav4 EV (generation 2 with Tesla power, not the 1996-2003 Rav4 EV's), just tell them that it's a:

2012 Rav4 EV

Save yourself all this frustration. It shares the same body as the 2006-2012 Rav4 oil burner, and shares NOTHING with a 2013 or newer Rav4.
